A Novel Hydrogen Peroxide Sensor Based on the Direct Electron Transfer of Catalase Immobilized on Nano‐Sized NiO/MWCNTs Composite Film

MWCNTs‐nanoNiO composite was used as a glassy carbon electrode modifier for construction of a novel catalase nanobiosensor for hydrogen peroxide. The immobilized catalase exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction of H₂O₂. The resulting amperometric biosensor exhibited a linear response over a concentration range of 200 µM to 2.53 mM with a low detection limit of 19.0 µM. Electrochemical impedance measurements revealed that the modified electrode can be used for the sensitive detection of H₂O₂. The charge transfer resistance found to decrease significantly after enzymatic reaction of nanobiosensor with H₂O₂. The resulting impedance was highly sensitive to H₂O₂ over a linear range of 19–170 nM with a detection limit of 2.4 nM.
